Yes.: Zyrtec (cetirizine) d is zyrtec (cetirizine) and sudafed combined (see ingredients on box in photo). Save money and buy the generic brand.

Question 2

hi i took zyrtec and mucinex (guaifenesin) earlier. can i take a sudafed as well?

Accepted Answer

Mgt: I would advise against taking an additional medication. Nasal rinses and nasal steroids may relieve your symptoms. A virtual appointment may be scheduled.

Accepted Answer

Yes.: There is no significant overlap in these meds if  taken at reasonable doses.

Question 4

Accepted Answer

Yes: As long as you only take the recommended doses.  If you do need all these medications to control your allergies, you should consider consulting an allergist.

Question 5

can you take sudafed 24 hour at the same time as zyrtec (cetirizine) 24 hour.  my face is getting numb by taking both.  why would that be?

Overdose: You dont need both anti histamines. The Pseudoephedrine in sudafed could be numbing your face.

Nasal steroid: Nasal steroid will likely be more effective but takes a few days of regular use to get optimal results. If still having problem, consult an allergist.

taking zyrtec (cetirizine) & sudafed for allergy symptoms from eustachian td. sit/stand symptoms are gone. when i lay down though, my inner ears & body itch. why?

Eustachian tube: Itching in the body is not a sign of eustacian tube dysfunction. Neither zyrtec (cetirizine) nor sudafed would be causing it. More history is needed to elucidate your problem.
